Panama City Beach
Sightseeing
Beautiful nature trails, great for walking or biking. Great for families and friends. It does get pretty hot so be sure to bring plenty of water.
During the summer, I recommend going early in the morning to both avoid traffic slowdowns and enjoy cooler temperatures.

East end of the beach, very beautiful state park. Typically offers offers kayak rentals and also has a campsite. There is a small entry fee, it was about $8 per vehicle last time I was out there.

Food scene
Local favorite, located right on the beach. Great views, food and booze. There’s beach access parking which makes this a good spot to camp out for a beach day. Then you also have access to bathrooms, food and drinks as desired.

One of, if not the most popular brunch spots on the beach. Food is top quality and atmosphere is great. They typically stay busy so I recommend planning an earlier visit so you don’t have to wait as long.

Shopping
If you’re interested in shopping, it’s worth the extra drive to Pier Park. You will expect some traffic if traveling during peak hours. Lots of shopping, restaurants and public beach access here.
